| The original thread from 2011 said June, July, august, and September. I wouldn't be able to compete since its generally to warm in June, July, and August to safely fish for muskies.

CRL - though I may disagree vehemently with your assessment of most everything NFL...if there were enough teams, I would consider creating a Southern Division that would start in March, then go on a break during the hot summer months. Then we are not asking guys to fish when the water temps are too high. |

Location: Northwest Chicago Burbs | Just throwing it out there now...since I know me, and I know my capacity to do all the awesome things I WANT to do on M1st...but knowing my follow through usually sucks like Jay Cutler versus the Pack...I will need help/volunteers. |

Location: Northwest Chicago Burbs | Thoughts about this:
4-6 Divisions.
Regional?
4-5 months of competition?
3 day window of connection versus same day rule?

| Sounds fun. Only issue for me is getting on the water. Friday is my only full day off. 3day window might work though! |

Location: Alex or Alek? | Three day window would be good. I ccan normally only fish the weekends. |

Location: North St. Paul, MN | I'm actually on the opposite end where I can do it in midweek and most of the guys we fished against were weekends. So, the three day window would work out great.
Musky45 and I had fun when we were involved couple years ago...We'd be up for it again. |

Location: Waukee, IA | How would the three day window work? Each team picks which of the three days to fish? |

| 3-day window sounds great, although part of me questions if that is even a large enough window.
(wed-fri you miss the weekend, fri-sun you miss the week) - we all have different and crazy schedules no doubt, i can realistically only plan to fish weekends for example. Also more of a granular question but would there be a maxiumum amt of TOW allowed for a match? Example within these 3 days you can only have 24 hours total on water - or something to that effect, just curious if someone could realistically fish much harder than another team within the rules, or if the playing field will have a level.
4-5 month competition sounds awesome, you get the full spectrum.
Regional could be really cool, different regions of the main musky fishing states ect, i like that idea. One question with this, i live in the Twin Cities, but fish in NW Wisconsin, which region would i be in? |

Location: Alex or Alek? | We could somehow do it for a week. Maybe impose a time stamp on the photos or have the judge not inform the contestant tell there scheduled fishing day or day before there scheduled day what the "item" that has to be included in the picture is. I like the 24 hour rule so everyone has the same TOW to "compete".
We would almost have to do where each person lives since I'm in Fargo, but fish the cities and northern mn. Or we could do divisions by when each team is more than likely to fish.
Ex. The Weekend Warriors Division. The Wasted Weekday Division..... |

Location: Northwest Chicago Burbs | 3 day window is as generous as we should go...much more, and is it really match fishing? Then it becomes more of "I went fish a day this month, so did you...how did you do?". This puts the pressure on the teams to catch fish THAT day.
FYI: when we first did this, had to be same day, and people managed.
The day should be from just after midnight in the morning (?) to midnight of the day. That probably doesnt make sense. BUT, i like the long day because then you gotta earn it. |
